Jimmy and Billy are making their gaming return this Summer in Double Dragon Gaiden, and today the developers have revealed an exact release date for fans to mark down!
Just revealed at the beginning of the month, Modus Games and Secret Base are closing out May with an official release date for Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons! The game will launch on July 27th, and there’s even a new gameplay trailer to enjoy while we wait:
Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons recalls the series’ classic aesthetic with refreshed pixel art visuals, sporting updated-yet-faithful appearances for both returning heroes and villains and a stirring soundtrack that keeps players ready for the next fight. With unlockable bonuses, adjustable difficulty levels and optional permadeath and infinite modes, Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons is a robust revitalization of the series’ signature side scrolling action. With two-player local co-op, the action quadruples as you and a friend clean up the mean streets of NYC. Online co-op is planned as a post-launch update later this year.
Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons hits PlayStation 4|5, Xbox consoles, Nintendo Switch, and PCs on July 27, 2023. Pre-orders for the game are currently live!
